Princess Diana

Piers Morgan says he has insider information about how the Royal Family is responding to a new book making explosive claims about Princess Diana. Speaking on Good Morning Britain, he suggested the palace is privately alarmed by the revelations, drawing wide attention online where the segment has attracted hundreds of thousands of engagements as royal watchers debate the book's claims.

Earl Spencer, brother of Princess Diana, has issued an apology to broadcaster Piers Morgan after factual errors were identified in his book about Diana. The correction prompted attention given Spencer's role as a guardian of his sister's memory and his usual insistence on accuracy about her life. Commenters are weighing the significance of the mistake and Morgan's response to the apology.

Piers Morgan says he will take legal action against Earl Charles Spencer over claims made in his book about Princess Diana, dismissing the allegations as false. The dispute centres on Spencer's portrayal of Morgan's conduct around his 1995 BBC interview with Diana. The story is drawing wide attention given the enduring public interest in Diana and clashes between high-profile British media figures.
